Abstract
Bu çalışmada bir Devlet Üniversitesinin İktisadi ve İdari Bilimler Fakültesi binasında bulunan ofislerin ergonomi ve Feng Shui felsefesine uygunluğu irdelenerek daha ergonomik ofis dizaynında nelerin olması gerektiği üzerinde durulmuştur. Bu amaçla hem nitel hem de nicel içeriği olan bir metodoloji kullanılarak gerçekleştirilen araştırmada akademisyenlerin ofislerindeki mobilyalardan, çevre ve iş koşullarından fazla memnun olmadıkları ve farklı bir bakış açısı ile dizayn edilmesi gerektiğini düşündükleri ortaya çıkmıştır. Son olarak da ergonomik ofis dizaynı ile ilgili öneriler getirilmiştir
